COVID 19 and the Related Risk with the Apearance of Arterial Hypertension by Freddy Fernando Jumbo Salazar, Génesis Alexandra Zúñiga Cárdenas, Liliana Katherine Sailema López

“…As a result, it was possible to identify the risk of suffering from hypertension in COVID-19 patients, a common aggravating factor in cardiovascular diseases, among them congestive heart failure or coronary heart disease, in the same way, a non-modifiable risk factor for suffering from arterial hypertension was age, therefore, the greater the age, the greater the risk of morbi-mortality. It was determined that the risk of presenting Arterial Hypertension was cardiovascular disease, which get worse with age and the use of antihypertensive drugs, and it was established that the consequences of inadequate management of this disease affect the person's subsequent lifestyle due to the consequences of it.…”
